Send in those VIN#'s

 

chris@hptuners.com is the guys email and just send him your vin. They are going to take the engine platform that gets the most votes and start there first.

 

sent mine in.

 

what do they do exactly?

and why VIN numbers

 

I don't see why you can't just enter in your engine type. Not crazy about giving out my vin.

 

Because they can't trust people to get the right engine/year/pcm so they just want your vin number. Parts of your vin contain your vehicle options and engine/transmission type.

So a Automatic Cobalt with the 2.2 is different calibration than a manual Cobalt with the 2.4.

I would be concerned about posting it here on the forums but just sending an email to a company that does engine management I am not to concerned.

If you don't want to send your vin in thats fine, we just won't get the aftermarket support from HPTuners

 

sent mine! HPTuners is the best software out there right now IMO.

 

I currently have HPT in my truck, have Dyno I'm waiting on Software, so I can say yes when I get a call from someone wanting their Cobalt(SS) tuned.

 

Bump.

Only a week or so more of voting. Lets get the LSJ to the top!!!

EDIT: Thats right, I am gonna ***** this thread out with the sticky function, lets get our engine ecu cracked.

 

Sending mine , hptuners works well in the F-body world . Itd be sweet to have familiar format for my SS pcm .

 

Nobody can really do anything with your vin . Its publically displayed on you car for anyone to see

 

Can someone please post a link to the actual thread?
I'm not even sure what I'm looking for here.

Walk into your local Chevy dealer and tell them you lost your key. Give them a name and if the VIN number you also give them matches, they will make you a new key. They are supposed to check ID, but you want to be the guy who's car is stolen because the doofus behind the parts counter forgot to check it?

I would never, ever give out my VIN. Matter of fact, illegal or not, my vehicles have the VIN partially covered with tape.

 

I just sent my vin number so hopefully we come in first so they can start doing whatever they gotta do

 

With the Cobalts anyways , that wont work . Your assigned a secruity code # which the dealer has to call a database with full info to even get cut instructions on how to cut your key .
